Why Choose Hornady American Whitetail 350 Legend 170gr?
Hornady developed the American Whitetail line around its InterLock hunting bullet. The exposed lead tip is designed to initiate expansion, while the internal InterLock ring helps maintain core and jacket integrity during penetration.
The 170 grain projectile gives 350 Legend hunters a dedicated expanding hunting load rather than a general-purpose range projectile. Hornady specifically introduced this American Whitetail configuration for deer hunters using the straight-walled 350 Legend cartridge.
Actual velocity, trajectory and point of impact can vary by rifle and environmental conditions. Hunters should verify accuracy and zero with the exact ammunition in the firearm they intend to use.
